Screening for Price Range, a Fixed Price, and Moving-Average Alignment
Summary
This Chinese equity screening example combines a daily high-low range above 1%, a closing price specified as 18.5 yuan, and alignment among moving averages. The accompanying discussion frames the range condition as a way to identify more active price movement and the moving-average condition as a possible sign of support or stability. It suggests ranking qualifying stocks by trading value and mentions adding financial and technical measures, along with stop-loss and position controls.
The document gives indicator and Python sketches, but the stated rule and examples are internally inconsistent: the code refers to a five-period average, while the prose describes at least five moving averages overlapping, and the title gives a different price. No backtest or performance evidence is presented. The author cautions that the simple screen can miss or misidentify candidates and may overlook company and industry risks; the proposed enhancements are suggestions, not tested improvements.
